4/25/2017

For free and with no pubicity this should be a no-brainer for practising musicians...

Google Play info:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superpowered.backtrackit&hl=en

- Detect and Shift the Key and Tempo of any of your songs!
- Remove the leading instrument in the song. This can be the Vocals so you can sing along or a Guitar solo so you can practice along!
- Guitar/Piano display of 16 musical scales in any key!
- Chords viewer: check the position of more than 140 chords!
- The App gives you control over the Bass/Middle/Treble of the song.
- Save the song as a karaoke track with new tempo, pitch and EQ settings!
- The App will sort all of your songs according to their key or tempo.
- Loop any part of the song! The loop is gapless.
- Overlay Guitar scales over any App! This is great for jamming over a track on YouTube.

Backtrackit gives you the best audio quality when the pitch is shifted or the tempo is changed. When the pitch is changed, the tempo remains the same due to time-stretching technique.

Backtrackit is Superpowered.

The App is still under development. Please report bugs so we can fix them.

BeatPrompter - Teleprompter/autocue app

3/14/2017

0 Comments

For rehearsing/practice and live gigs this seems like a very useful tool.

Google Play info:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stevenfrew.beatprompter

BeatPrompter is a teleprompter/autocue app for song lyrics and/or chords which places a greater emphasis on visibility, timing and rhythm than other similar apps. By defining such things as beats-per-minute, beats-per-bar, bars-per-line, etc, you can have a greater control over the display, and by knowing that the onscreen text will definitely be in the right place at the right time, BeatPrompter can display each line of the song in as large a font as possible, making it more readable from a greater distance, or for users with imperfect vision. Great for players of guitar, keyboard, mandolin, banjo, whatever, or even just vocalists.

Check out a video of BeatPrompter in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ5Tdwtgimc

DEMO VERSION! This will only read the first 15 lines of any song files, and MIDI clock sync functionality is disabled. You can buy the full version from within the demo.

BeatPrompter uses the popular ChordPro file format, with a few custom {tags} to control app-specific functionality. It reads song files from the (free) Google Drive, Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive cloud storage services, so you must store your files in either of these to make use of BeatPrompter.

BeatPrompter can output custom MIDI messages at precisely-timed moments to control any external devices you have attached, as well as outputting MIDI clock signals to synchronize external devices, such as looper pedals and drum machines. It can also optionally play backing tracks along with each song, and you can define multiple backing tracks for each song and choose which to play.

MusicTrans - Seems real good for picking apart music

Seems like this could be something for helping learning songs from recordings with some handy tools and the frequency analyzer seems to work good.
Better see the video and see how it works.

PlayStore info:

MusicTrans is a powerful learning tool for playing any song. Take your favorite instrument, open your song and start learning it at your own pace.Load any song on MusicTrans, slow it down, repeat a section, remove the vocals, amplify the bass or guitar. You can do anything you need to listen all the details on that song.

"MusicTrans is a wonderful app that makes it simple, effective and time-efficient to create transcriptions of your favorite music" (AndroidAppsReviews.com)

MusicTrans is the only app that will show you a hint of the notes being played in realtime. Without touching any control, MusicTrans will give you a graphical view of what notes are being played. An intermediate player can easily get the basic chords just by looking at the screen, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg! From there you can start using the different sound processing techniques included in MusicTrans to literally see what is being heard.

- If you want to give it a try for FREE, download MusicTrans Lite : http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xtvapps.musictrans.lite

- Are you a MusicTrans addict? Download MusicTrans for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux from http://www.musictransapp.com

For the best experience, we recommend you to use MusicTrans with earphones.

Main Features:

* Tempo reduction with pitch locking down to 25% of the original speed.
* Realtime note suggestions from what exactly you are listening at any time
* Voice reduction (*) with bandpass filter. Don't lose other details like the bass or other bass sounds.
* Listen to an specific audio channel with the panning control
* Powerful 10 band equalizer to adjust each frequency range with precision
* Loop marks for repeating any part

(*) Voice reduction depends on how each song has been recorded. It will affect all the instruments recorded in the central channel.
